Trinity Exam Fees for 2022

Trinity exam fees vary based on the location of your course provider. If you signed up for the 4-week intensive in Hong Kong, please contact English for Asia for more information regarding your exam fees.

Exam fees are due at the time of registration (2 months before your assessment takes place).

*The fees for units 2-4 are charged together as a group. However, you will only complete unit 3 (the phonology interview) and unit 4 (the observed lessons) during the 4-week intensive phase of the course. You can submit the unit 2 projects later without paying any additional fees.
